Betting on Inter Milan
Inter have secured second place in the Serie A standings with just two defeats in their last 12 matches, keeping them in contention for the Champions League spots.
Despite a 13-point deficit to leaders Napoli in the Scudetto race, their strong momentum has placed them firmly in the European places, with only a three-point difference between second and sixth place.
In this period, Inter have recorded nine wins and won the Italian Super Cup by defeating Milan on January 18th. They also advanced to the semifinals of the Coppa Italia with a win over Atalanta.
At home, Inter is a formidable opponent, losing only twice in 10 games for a total of 24 points. They have also scored 21 goals and allowed a league-low five goals, tying with Roma.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Andre Onana; Matteo Darmian, Francesco Acerbi, Alessandro Bastoni; Denzel Dunfries, Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Federico Dimarco; Edin Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez.
Betting on A.C. Milan
Milan are going through their most difficult time for a long time and their aspirations of winning a second championship are practically over after a bad run in Serie A.
The reigning champions have lost two in a row in the league and are now in fifth place in the standings with 38 points, the same number as Lazio and Atalanta, but with a much lower goal difference.
However, the most worrying aspect of Stefano Pioli’s side’s recent results is the high number of goals allowed. Against Lazio they lost 4-0, while against Sassuolo they allowed five goals for a total of nine in two games.
Prior to that they lost 0-3 against Inter in the Supercoppa final and Torino surprised them in the Coppa Italia by beating them 0-1 in extra time. In total, they have 13 goals allowed and only four scored in their last four official matches.
In terms of away games, noting that they play in the same stadium as Inter, Milan have only one win in their last five matches.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Ciprian Tatarusanu; Davide Calabria, Pierre Kalulu, Matteo Gabbia, Theo Hernandez; Sandro Tonali, Rade Krunic; Alexis Saelemaekers, Brahim Diaz, Rafael Leao; Olivier Giroud.
JefeBet Prediction
The current form of both teams suggests that Inter will emerge victorious in the Derby della Madonnina, but these derbies are unpredictable and not influenced by current streaks.
As we pointed out, Inter are a real wall when they play at home, but in the last four Serie A matches in which Milan have played away against their city rivals, they have found the back of the net.
Likewise, the Rossoneri have struggled defensively, and it seems difficult for them to shut out a Nerazzurri team that is second in Calcio with 40 goals scored.
Prediction: Both score (INT 2 – MIL 2).
